Case Study Paul our Plumber

Paul has been running his own business for six years. He provides Plumbing Services to private and commercial properties and he needs to be in constant contact with his customers and suppliers.

Paul was finding it difficult to keep in touch with some of his customers especially when he was in a meeting or out networking. He was also finding it difficult to ensure that his quotes for new business and for suppliers were being sent out in a timely manner and then followed up. In addition he found that he would spend time in the evenings and weekends catching up on his paperwork which upset his wife who had just had her second child.

Our Virtual PA, Julie has been successful in assisting Paul in reducing his workload, enabling him to spend more time with his family. In fact he was at home to see his daughters first steps.
